About the Ministry

Members of the Bereavement ministry offer many forms of service and care for families during times of loss and grief. These include meeting with family members and helping prepare the Vigil and Funeral Liturgy which includes providing Altar Servers as needed. Members pray for the deceased and their family members; prepare for the (All Souls Day) Annual Memorial Mass; send out invitations and cards and offer a listening ear and a caring presence for the bereaved.

"Blessed are they who mourn, for they shall be comforted." (Matthew 5:4)
